Explaining the name of my blog

Initially I thought I would ask you all to write your thoughts on love, but everywhere I turn and every prompt this week seems to be related to Love.

Instead I will ask you all to write about something you love ... your blog.

Share with us why and how you chose the name of your blog and what it means to you.

When I started blogging publicly in 2011, I found it really hard to choose a name for my blog. So many names bounced around in my head, Suzy's blog, Suzy's thoughts, Suzy's ramblings, Suzy's notes - most uncreative and very dull. But nothing really came to mind that resonated with me.

And the more I racked my brains to think of something, the more elusive and hard it got.

Whenever I blog, I listen to music as it always relaxes me and helps the thoughts form in my head and so as I listened, the song "Someday Somewhere" floated by.

Someday Somewhere

You said hello

And walked into my life

"That's it" was the thought that came into my head. And that's how I named my blog.

It's the perfect name as each one of you who drops by my blog says hello and walks into my life. Some for just that moment in time, some now and then and some for much longer with whom a lovely friendship starts to form.

This song also has a special place in my heart as it reminds me of a time long gone when love was young and sweet.

As always I am convinced the Universe sends the answers our way and for me more often than not it comes through a song.

So write your post, link up here with the linky below and share with us the beginnings of your blog. I look forward to reading your post.

And while you're writing and sharing, enjoy the song ... Someday Somewhere

This is interesting Suzy...Never really thought why I chose what I chose as the name of my blog... I think I just picked one randomly..But your's makes sense and gives another dimension to your blog...

Why am I not surprised that you chose a song title for your blog name! Strangely, although I've heard so many of Demis Roussos' songs, I've never heard this one, Suzy. Very appropriate, indeed and love the prompt! :)

Good idea to name your blog after a song. I named mine because of my writer's cramps, lol ! I'll try to participate in the Thursday Writer's Post Blog, with another theme "Alphabet Thursday" which I do for years.

This is a wonderful idea for a post. I have actually been thinking about writing an 'About' page for the blog, so maybe I will do that, as a part of this exercise! Great idea and I love the name of your blog. It has that sense of exploration , so nicely built in.

I read few posts on the prompt given by u ! Really a lovely idea and feels good to come over here after a gap !hope u remember me ;)and ya some day some where is a unique name - really !

As I am here just want to know rather than posting a new post on blog. I chose Pensive just becoz of harrypotter . Wanted to store all my thoughts in my pensive just like dumbledore doesPen-sieve (HP) and I just changed it to Pensive ( people spell it in both ways). I just kept a hyphen between Pen and sive recently. Not sure if it is too cool but I liekd it :)

I'll also just say it here.The name of my writing blogs is Storypot. When I started the blog, I wanted to create a place where I could talk about the writing life, the writing process, things that inspire me to write, events in my life that influence what I write about. As the years have gone by, I have increasingly felt fortunate that I was able to choose this name, because I want my blog to be that warm kitchen where you can sit down, have a cup of coffee and chat while you cook. Only I'm cooking up the stories while my visitors keep me company and share with me about their lives.
